Field Trip Tomorrow

Our school has just become a partial magnet focusing on math and science. More specifically on the environment and coastal protection (when we eventually get into our new school, it will be on a barrier island). To start the year off with a bang, tomorrow we are going on a field trip to the beach to pull seining nets and study some of our local ocean creatures. Teachers had the opportunity to do this same trip during the summer and I know it is going to be a great experience. My concern is it is only the second week of school...OH MY! Am I ready to take my kiddos to a beach??? At least our day is early in the week...each day, a different grade level goes. We all have our eyes glued to the weather to see what Hurricane Irene is going to do! Our school has incredible parent support so I know I will have extra help. Wish me luck!
